At the door, Marcus turned around and gave Shera a cold stare that instantly wiped off her smile.
As soon as they arrived at Cloud Villa, Millie went upstairs in a hurry, grabbed her pyjamas and locked herself in the bathroom.
She took off her clothes and stood in front of the mirror. She looked at her back in front of the mirror and saw a wound the size of a fingertip at the upper of her back.
Her breathing quickened immediately. That must be where the mini bomb was planted.
On her way back home, she received a message from Shera, warning her not to do anything.

Millie stared at her back in fear. She couldn’t act rashly.
Outside the bathroom, Marcus glanced at the time. Millie had been in there for an awfully long time. Strangely enough, it was very silent in there. Not even the sound of water could be heard.
She had becvery quiet since her talk with Shera, as if she had something on her mind, and that bothered Marcus.
He stood up from the bed and knocked twice on the bathroom door.
“Honey, are you done?”

“No! Don’t…cin,” Millie shouted when she saw Marcus at the door.
She was just in her white bra.
She hurriedly picked up a towel beside her and wrapped it on her body.
Although they were married, Millie still couldn’t just stand in front of him without her clothes on.
“You haven’t started yet?” He arched an eyebrow.
“Not yet. I was feeling a little out of sorts. You can go out. I’ll take a shower right away.”
However, when Marcus’ gaze fell on Millie’s smooth skin, he seemed transfixed. He couldn’t look away.
